Screw it let's make everyone exactly 100% equal from criminals to babies...well except the unborn of course and allow them all to practice anything they want as long as it's legal. I don't know why parent's are looked down on for this type of practice.
I once was waiting at the bus stop and this heteosexual couple were passionately kissing out in public. I felt that was totally inappropriate. If they could not keep their paws off of each other then they should at least get a room and spare the public.
It is funny that this would come up on here today. My son and I were having a discussion yesterday about how it seems to us that people have lost their sense of dignity anymore. Screaming and yelling in public, pawing each other in public, using foul language toward anyone and everyone, not taking care of their family, demanding the "right" to be just as trashy as they please in public and calling it "being real", not using good manners, etc. etc.
There was a time when almost everyone....from the richest person in town to the poorest person in town.....tried their best to behave with human dignity. Somehow we have lost that. And in losing it we have lost a lot of the glue that kept society functioning.
It's the acceptance of odd situation families instead of holding on to traditional family values as the standard. Bonds and links through father, mother and child do contain something more than any other combination can give if for no other factor than that's the path natural selection sent us on. Maybe it's sending us on a different path now but I can't see how evolution fits in without a way to propagate. So is it good practice for humanity which relies on propagation to make traditional nature forced family values less important while at the same time pushing the values of abnormal families forward to a point where both are equal?

Yep. This is one of the things that I least like about our society. I think we can really learn from the older generations. I say this as a 35 year old.

It's also an example of how those who are "comfortable with their sexuality" forcing others to witnesss how comfortable they are with it. This is what we mean by forcing it upon others.
